Seriously, Subban is a really good defenceman, I just think its premature to scream payday for him yet. He'll get it, but not this year imo

What's the benefit of doing a bridge contract now when we already know what Subban will bring? Wait until he becomes UFA and his value increases to his maximum so the team isn't able to sign him anymore and looses him in a few years? Is it that hard to give a longterm contract to a promising young player?
